Many people ask: What is Choi Kwang Do?

Choi Kwang Do is a holistic Martial Art which caters for the complete development of the individual - mentally, physically, socially and emotionally.

The founder of Choi Kwang Do is Grandmaster Kwang Jo Choi, he is a 9th Dan Black Belt and was one of the pioneering Masters of Tae Kwon Do. However, by the age of 30 Grandmaster Choi found himself in a wheelchair due to the harsh rigid lock-out movements and detrimental health practices that he taught in Tae Kwon Do.

Choi Kwang Do is based on modern scientific principles from human anatomy, physiology (the branch of the biological sciences dealing with the functioning of organisms), psychology (the science of mental life), kinesiology (the branch of physiology that studies mechanics and anatomy in relation to human movement), neurophysiology (the branch of neuroscience that studies the physiology of the nervous system) and biomechanics (human movement science). The combination of modern day science coupled with the development of Character Education is what makes Choi Kwang Do a highly effective practice for self-transformation.

Choi Kwang Do uses natural body movements and its easy-to-learn sequential movements maximize the body's force-producing capabilities, which not only makes it an extremely effective form of self defence but also and more importantly enhances your health.

I was looking for a martial arts club for my son to attend. He was 7 years old at the time and has some difficulty speaking and understanding. Which lead to him being low in confidence. Having done some martial arts i know, personaly it can boost confidence.

I proceeded to take my son to, i think every club in wembley and nearby, and was very disappointed with the out comes. My son’s confidence got worse. Even crying at one club.Then i checked out this club out.

I Would like to point out, to me, most martial arts are the same. They teach you to fight. Which is what i wanted my son to learn. Black belts, i can buy from Asda, and unless your founder is Mr Miyagi, its all the same to me.

That said, this club is probably the best club for children i have been to. There is a heavy focus of character building. They start the lessons with mindfulness. Yes they have children sitting quietly. Then a little talk about feelings. Before the warm ups and patterns.

What makes this a good club for children is the main teacher Mr Keith Banfield . He Does not play favorites, does not speak down to any of the children, even takes time to speak to the children individually.

This attitude filters down to the children, as i saw no bullying, or intimidation. In facti saw very small framed children with confidence, and not the aggression i had seen encouraged at other clubs. I saw young girls and boys practicing together, very happily. Unlike some of the competingi had seen at other clubs. Again this seems down to a real understanding of children being children and the importance of development of character, above violence. I put this down to a very good teacher. I saw him a few times deal calmly and patiently with children that would of been dealt in totally different ways at other clubs.

As for the down sides it's in a difficult area to get to, and its money up front, and no weekend training, and its for these reasons i stopped sending my son here. My son plays piano and its difficult fitting it all in, weekdays. but i really believe this is probably the best club for children in the area, that i have seen.

I believe the club had a very positive effect on my son and would recommend it, even if it's just for a term in summer.
